The engineer will work at the customer location and collaborate with cross-functional teams to support product development, sustaining engineering, manufacturing, and production builds. The role requires strong analytical capability, practical problem-solving skills, and a commitment to product quality, reliability, and timely issue resolution.\nKey Responsibilities\nCircuit & Schematic Design\nDesign, develop, review, and modify analog, digital, and mixed-signal electronic circuits.\nCreate and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, design records, and engineering documentation.\nSupport design changes and engineering change implementation while ensuring technical accuracy and traceability.\nParticipate in design reviews and recommend improvements for performance, reliability, manufacturability, and serviceability.\nRoot Cause Analysis & Troubleshooting\nPerform structured root cause analysis and failure investigations for electrical and electronic systems.\nTroubleshoot complex circuit-level, PCB-level, subsystem-level, and system-level issues.\nDefine and implement corrective and preventive actions, and drive technical issues through closure.\nAnalyze production defects, field failures, and customer-reported issues using data-driven problem-solving methods\nSkill Requirements\nComponent Evaluation, Testing & Validation\nEvaluate alternate or replacement components for obsolescence, availability, reliability, and cost considerations.\nConduct electrical, functional, and reliability testing of components, PCB assemblies, and electronic subsystems.\nValidate form, fit, function, interface compatibility, and compliance with applicable design specifications.\nPrepare test plans, document results, summarize technical findings, and provide qualification recommendations.\nProduction Build & Manufacturing Support\nProvide hands-on engineering support during prototype, pilot, production, and sustaining builds.\nPartner with manufacturing and operations teams to resolve build issues and maintain production continuity.\nSupport production readiness through design reviews, test coverage assessment, and risk identification.\nDrive continuous improvements in manufacturability, yield, quality, and troubleshooting effectiveness.\nOther Requirements\nCross-Functional Collaboration\nWork closely with Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, Procurement, Service, and Supplier teams.\nCoordinate with global stakeholders and external suppliers to resolve design, component, and production challenges.\nCommunicate technical risks, findings, recommendations, and action plans clearly to engineering and program stakeholders.\nProvide technical guidance and mentoring to junior engineers when required.\nRequired Qualifications\nBachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related discipline.\n7-9 years of relevant industry experience in electrical or electronics engineering.\nStrong knowledge of circuit design, schematic development, electronic components, and electronic systems.\nHands-on experience troubleshooting PCB assemblies and electronic subsystems.\nProven experience in root cause analysis, failure analysis, corrective actions, testing, and validation.\nExperience supporting manufacturing operations and production builds in a cross-functional environment.\nStrong technical documentation, report-writing, communication, and stakeholder-management skills.\nPreferred Technical Skills\nProficiency with oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, signal generators, logic analyzers, power supplies, and related laboratory equipment.\nExperience with schematic and PCB design tools such as Altium Designer, OrCAD, Cadence, Mentor Graphics, or equivalent.\nKnowledge of Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Testability (DFT), component lifecycle management, and obsolescence engineering.\nExposure to structured quality and problem-solving methods such as 8D, FMEA, CAPA, Six Sigma, or Lean Manufacturing.\nExperience in semiconductor equipment, industrial automation, electronics manufacturing, medical devices, automotive electronics, or similar regulated/high-reliability environments.\nKey Competencies\nStrong analytical thinking and systematic problem-solving ability.\nEffective collaboration across engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and supplier organizations.\nAbility to work independently and responsibly in an onsite customer environment.\nHigh attention to detail, quality, safety, and documentation.\nAbility to manage multiple priorities and deliver results within committed timelines.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4827,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["IT
